True fact: there is a thriving business here in importing snow from the surrounding mountains, especially around Christmas. It arrives packaged in styrofoam bricks. You get it with a big, freaking heavy block of ice, and then you set up a miniature winter scene on the ice, and then you carefully put the snow on top. And that's at the center of the table for Christmas/Hanukkah/insert winter holiday here. And if you live in a good neighborhood and have a front yard, it goes on display in a big plastic box afterwards.
